Ingredients
- 1/3 pound fresh or frozen skinless cod, sole, or flounder fillets, 1/2 inch thick
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/3 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/6 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 small fat-free wheat tortillas
Directions
-
Thaw fish, if frozen. Arrange fish in a 2-quart square baking dish; set aside.
-
In a small bowl whisk together lemon juice, oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Pour over fish. Turn fish to coat with marinade. Cover and chill for 15 minutes.
-
Drain fish, discarding any marinade.
-
Stack tortillas and wrap in foil.
-
For a charcoal grill, grill fish and tortillas on the greased rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 4 to 6 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork and tortillas are warmed, turning tortilla stack once. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place fish and tortilla stack on greased grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.)
-
Transfer fish to a cutting board. Cut or flake fish into 1-inch pieces.
-
Serve in warmed tortillas topped with Pineapple Salsa and/or Chipotle Coleslaw.
